I definitely agree on the devices being larger in some places. Some does look like rotational doubling I guess you would call it, but then how is it on the other side as well? I haven't bought it yet, just in talks and waiting on more pictures...

HA! Those are the same two images just rotated and skewed in different directions. You can see the terrible crop job on the new pics too.

Tanmam2001 I see the edges are scrappy and where he tried to black out anything outside of the rim. So the consensus is that it's photoshopped 3 different ways?

Its NOT real Cant be. Look at the L and Look at the Y. The Doubling on the L is to the Left and the Doubling on the Y Is to the Right UM NOT POSABLE. NO detail in the hair a blob for an Ear. Bad Photo Shop Or Fake Casted Coin. Also look at the second Picture lower right >>> Someone blackened the surroundings of the coin with Black Sharpie But you can see a lil metal attached to the coin on the OUT SIDE of the Rim. My Guess is that's how they pored the metal in to the sand casting.  DO NOT BUY THIS COIN unless He or She is willing to send it to a TPG for Authentication. Edited by Daves Errors

I made this in about 45 seconds. 2nd layer opacity around 75-80%, pivot point set to 12 o'clock, scaled up a smidgen. No rotation at all. No complex editing at all, just basic features in most photo editing software. Something to be on the lookout for when buying errors online. Good clues to this one being fake is the doubling of contact marks and features in the background, the "doubling" being gray or lighter in color than the rest of the coin, "doubling" overlapping the rim, and the overlay image or "doubling" being scaled up as opposed to rotated or shifted laterally (Which the creator of the image could have easily done instead, not sure why he/she scaled it, that's a pretty dumb mistake on their part).  |

Id say it was double struck with a sight rotation in collar at first glance, but the date is fine.
Liberty is shifted left, George and in god we trust and P mintmark is shifted downward, date is fine or shifted downward also and off the coin? No, just no.
If how this could happen at the mint can be explained, i'd love to hear it.
it's a "photoshop" image manipulation. you can't have the liberty shifted left and showing the doubling then having everything else shifted straight down, if the coin rotates in collar so does George and the In god we trust.
if not a photoshop, and actually exists, then its got to be a cast counterfeit done poorly.

I'm pretty sure it's photoshopped. There is only one picture of the obverse and reverse, but the seller rotated them around to make it look like multiple angles when it's really not.
